Rugby's new wonderkid just scored the try of the season and he qualifies for Wales

London Irish's teenage full-back Henry Arundell is being hailed as "world-class" after dancing through defenders to score a "remarkable" try against Toulon.

The 19-year-old replacement, who is qualified to play for Wales, England or Scotland, received the ball just in front of his own try line in the 74th minute at Stade Felix Mayol and initially burst through a gap in his own 22 before gear-changing to leave six would-be tacklers in his wake as he slalomed his way almost 100 metres at devastating speed to dive over in the corner.

"This is remarkable," Jamie Lyall said of the jaw-dropping solo score on the match commentary. "What a break from Arundell. That is astonishing. A try to end all tries." Co-commentator David Flatman said: "I don't care if he's a rookie, this is world-class. There just ain't many players in the world who could have done that, would have done that. Absolutely sensational."
